New Gear: Bell Bullitt Helmet – AIMExpo 2013

Bell released the all-new Bullitt helmet today at the AIMExpo in Orlando, Florida. The Bullitt is a full-face helmet to pair with their Bell Custom 500 ¾ helmet, and after the recent success of the $149.95 Biltwell Gringo, it is positioned at an increased price point of $399.95.

A modern take on the 40-year-old classic Bell Star, the Bell Bullitt helmet joins the full-face vintage helmet market alongside the Ruby Castel and Biltwell Gringo. It looks almost like a blend of the two, which isn’t a bad thing.

• Ultra low-profile fiber composite shell

• Multi-Density EPS liner

• Removable, washable and anti-bacterial interior

• Perforated micro-suede interior fabric with leather trim

• Padded chin strap with stainless steel D-Ring closure with leather pull tab
